First thanks.
David, unfortunately I applied this method but the result at home did not bring anything. After some time I have all my COM port just like pictures.
I don't know what I do now ?

You can try try using a program Tim recommends called Com Name Arbiter Setter
http://www.uwe-sieber.de/misc_tools_e.html#arbiter
This will allow you to clear com ports that are incorrectly set to reserved in the Windows Registry.

There is a MUCH easier way. Open SmartSDR CAT, right click on the Remove button and select the option "Reset FlexVSP ports".1

Thanks you Tim

Upgrade to the latest version of SmartSDR, 1.10.16.0

Thanks, right click on Remove works but is non-obvious to find. Could you add 'Right-click for removal options' to the hint text for the button ?0
-
It's obvious if you read the CAT documentation ;-)
We'll take your suggestion under consideration.1 -
"this may take a while " means ???
